But for the new number system and colours from 1968, 111 112 might have looked like this upon introduction: Train Rental has a nice fleet of ex-DB electrics Class 111 and gave them a variety of colours. Like this quasi retro E11 112/111 112 with the RB 37 at Kaarst-Broicherheide on 23 July 2025. THe 111 112 wore neither the old E11 numbers nor the old blue.

On 22 May 2022 DB 111 074 stands at Köln Hbf with the Herzerather extra train. Travellers on board this train (also known as 'Sauferzug'; that is Drunkards' Express in Germany) made no attempt to hide audible their enthusiasm for a weekend of wine drinking. 

Time warp? On 6 December 2025 DB 111 158 stands at Venlo with an extra train to Bonn that constists of some DB coahces from the 1960s and 1970s, but also one or two coaches from the 1930s. The much more modern ICE Class 407 awaits departure on track 3 in the back ground. 
